The wines are produced both from local grape varieties of Aragatsotn region and also from other region of Armenia, with the use of the famous Karabakh oak-barrels for the purpose of wine aging. Most of the grapes used for production are Voskehat, Kangun, Muscat (white) and Kakhet, Haghtanhak, Areni (red).
